Cote used to be good because of the attention to detail. Sadly this seems to have been lost so you are left with a very average, underwhelming, won't be rushing back feeling. No water brought to the table until food arrived. The starter seemed bare - realised when we got home and checked the menu that the chutney was missing. Main course steaks delivered without truffle hollandaise. We asked where it was and it was brought cold. The chocolate roulade looked like a cheap piece of swiss roll. For virtually the same price you can get a much better experience next door at Bellanger

The service was ok but the food was awful. We haven’t been to the restaurant this year yet but this is the last time we will do it. It was so much better before lockdown! In terms of the atmosphere, there was a table full of drunks who were super noisy... Not really the restaurant’s fault though

My meal Of salmon was burnt then replaced with undercooked fish the manager gave an apology and a complimentary alternative and coffee. He explained that his experienced Chef wasn’t on duty that day so the meal failed to reach the usual standard .. My friends meal of chicken was good and calamari starter and deserts good . The restaurant felt safe and tables well placed I would go again

good to see restaurant busy after lockdown, almost every available table occupied; also nice to have prestige menu back - my starter & pud were very nice, moules & crumble; my main, ribeye steak which I asked for rare, was cooked medium, was tasteless and wildly over salted, unfortunately

Your staff are probably the element that makes the difference and keep us coming back. They just get it right.. professional and friendly, they know when to engage and when to leave you be. The food is consistently good and well priced. And no loud music which is a rare treat these days!

Great meal and excellent service. My only query you is that I I don’t think you were monitoring the guests in terms of Covid infection.Bellanger next door also checks temperatures on those dining. I would have liked to see more precautions taken.

So pleased to go to Cote again. Warm welcome and no hassles. So pleased to see a proper menu! I refuse to go anywhere using a mobile download. Cote Restaurants make you feel everything is back to normal while observing the rules. Along with tasty food it's just what customers want right now. Will be back soon!

I booked a table with my friend and we had really lovely time. The food was delicious and service really good. We had this lovely lady as our waitress and after paying when we were ready to leave she noticed that my friend had a birthday and brought us two glasses of free prosecco! We were impressed by all this and we'll definitely come back.
